I seem to have an affinity for the Gloucestershire tokens. Gloucestershire Gloucester DH 1 (S) from Gary Sriro [IMG] Gloucestershire...
One of these days I need to send my tokens out for good photos! Otherwise I depend on sellers pictures. Buckinghamshire Slough DH 22 - from...
Personally, I'm more interested in original surfaces than whether the coin is toned or not. Nothing uglier than a coin from the 1830's that is...

I think the 62 comes from the somewhat flat strike, which is common given the amount of metal that had to fill both the elephant and the cow. NGC...
Either AU58BN or MS62BN, essentially the same grade. Nice Conder! For those wondering what the differences are between the two reverse dies -...
